Help with mold

One of my Solenopsis invicta queens who has no workers, only eggs and larvae, has a dark splotched of mold in her test tube. What can I do about this? I started heating the nest today… will this kill or speed up the mold?

I think this might speed the growth. As long as it isnt covering the cotton you're fine. Otherwise shift her to a new test tube
Ants I have-
camponotus compressus colony- the shadow warriors.
Pls just let me have a tetramorium colony

The heat seems to slow it…. But I had to get the eggs if the mold.
